The vehicle jack is designed for
changing tires only. Do not at-
tempt to raise another vehicle model
with it or to raise any load of any kind.
To do so could cause accidents and
personal injury.
Have the lug bolts checked for proper
tightness with a calibrated torque
wrench at the earliest possibility (torque
specification: 72 lb.ft./100 Nm).<
When storing the wheel, take care to
ensure that you do not damage the re-
taining pin in the spare tire recess.
When light-alloy wheels other than
Original BMW light-alloy wheels are fit-
ted to the car, it may be necessary to
use different lug bolts.
Replace the defective tire as soon as
possible and have the new wheel/tire
balanced.
